About Snack Pack

I must admit, every time I see Snack Packs in the grocery store, I can’t help but think of Adam Sandler in the movie Billy Madison. And I smirk to myself, what a great movie. Tho I may be partial, as it was the very first movie I was allowed to go to with my friends, and no parental supervision (yes, I was very sheltered).

Anyways, Snack Pack was first introduced in 1968. From 1968 – 1984 Snack Pack was sold in single serving aluminum cans, with a tab on top to open them (sadly, I’m old enough to remember taking those cans in my school lunches). In 1984 they started selling them in the plastic cups we all know and love. Ok, my 4 yr old isn’t a fan of the packaging, because he can’t open them by himself yet.
